Don't Starve Together Game Update - 722535 Notes (15th April 2026)
A small update landed yesterday, but the real news is what's coming tomorrow: the WX-78 Skill Spotlight and a full content roadmap.
This one is more of a warm-up act. Update 722535 arrived on April 15th as a light drop ahead of what Klei is billing as a proper content moment: the WX-78 Skill Spotlight update lands today, April 16th, alongside a full roadmap for where Don't Starve Together is headed next. New skins and a fresh batch of streaming drops are also part of the package, so if you've been grinding watchtime for cosmetics, today is your day.
The bigger story buried in these notes is Don't Starve Elsewhere, which Klei officially announced at the Triple-i Initiative Showcase. It's a standalone game rather than a DST expansion, and it already has a Steam page up for wishlisting. Klei has been clear they won't be pushing Elsewhere news through DST channels, so if you want to follow it, the newsletter at klei.gg or the Steam wishlist is your best path.
I'm curious what the WX-78 Skill Spotlight brings to a character that already has one of the more distinct playstyles in the roster. The complete notes are below.
